Stay alert! The contest window is now open!

The contest is open for 5 months alongside Jaws / Peahi, Nazarre in Portugal and Mavericks are the three Big Wave contests run by the World Surf League.

Volunteer?

Interested in volunteering as land ambassadors (monitors) on the day of the contest? No spectators are allowed on the beach due to the dangers, like what happened in 2010 when a rogue wave washed away media scaffolding and plenty got hurt.

Meet Luca Padua ~ Shredding Monsters ~ Mavericks

Olympic Channel presents a very intimate documentary of the best Mavericks day so far in 2018. 16 year old local surfer Luca has been riding the giants of Mavericks since he was 13 and he is already shredding big waves better than most.
